If Paramount had licensed it to Kino it would have a 3D release. Bob Furmanek had posted rather pointed remarks about this around the time of my post that you quoted, but ultimately deleted them to not be seen as bagging on Olive too much.

As far as I can tell this was not a VistaVision title. This is worth mentioning because VistaVision had a 1.85:1 aspect ratio, while Savage Innocents was 2.35:1. I'm pretty sure Ray recorded and released his film in Technirama, which--like VistaVision--used a "lazy 8" process, though the lens was anamorphic. It's also worth noting that the film was also released in select venues in Technirama 70, which was a 70mm print-up process that produced a 2.20:1 aspect ratio (like Todd-AO).

I guess my questions are, do we know what aspect ratio of this DVD release, and is 2.35:1 or 2.20:1 the preferred ratio?
